Walk, run, sprint

Starting a new job is an exciting prospect, but it can also be quite daunting. We understand this, and that’s why take a supportive, mentoring role with new starters to get them up to speed.

We tend to run our projects in an agile way, with short sprint cycles, delivering early and revising requirements based on user feedback. We find that it’s a very productive and cooperative process, with substantial client adoption and involvement. That’s not to say it always works like that, but works well for a lot of projects.

Open source

We use open source software in all our projects, and sometimes it’s nice to give a little back. That’s why we actively encourage getting involved in open source projects, whether fixing a bug on or building something new, it feels good to be involved.
